|
|
Just found out I need different hatch hinges for my formula. Here's some pics of what I have and what I need. I need the hinge on the left. Thats one of my originals and its bent. My replacement hatch came with the right hand style which not only shows, but is 1/4" taller then my old hinges.
As you can see the one's I need are more flat, don't have a wave bent into them from the factory.
Also I still need a good set of plain firebird/formula taillights. The set I got off ebay was worthless. |

The one pictured is the better of the 2. Tried to straighten it a little but the 90* bend is bent a little too far. Also since these are bolted to glass they have to be pretty straight when you tighten them down. |
